(not so) old friend


What can you say about a dear friend? . . .  an amazing person who is really more like a kindred spirit.  I feel so lucky to have a few really really good friends.  People who I care deeply about, and who I know care about me.  One of these special friends however, is now, not only my friend but my new business partner, and I feel like a kid, who having planned an adventure in the playhouse dreaming with her best girlfriend, is now able to realize that dream.  Who but Mary would lift and move humongous pieces of furniture, spend hours sanding, painting and sometimes re-painting floors and walls with me, and be willing to do almost anything required to have the space we want ready for our shop opening.  Not to mention someone who is considerate, kind, creative, honest, patient, and always receptive to new ideas with a positive spirit.  Someone who is not afraid to take some chances and make some mistakes with me.  I could not have asked for a better person to partner with in undertaking the challenge of a small business.  Soooo. . . . Mary, thanks for agreeing to be my partner in this brand-new adventure.  No matter what happens with SWITCH, the friendship we share and the memories we make will remain the most important thing above all else.  

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you've forgotten the words."


Have a lovely day!
